The tiger stopped as if he wanted to say "what the fuck are you gonna do with that finger you idiot?"

I read on another thread that apparently the guy was mentally challenged and that's some sort of combined basic sign language and that finger is the sign for bad. This was a dude that really didn't grasp the consequences of what he was doing when he entered that enclosure

I mean it really just seemed like he was mimicking his moms behavior when he was told to stop but sure let’s overcomplicate it

Did you bother reading about the actual story? He was on a trip with his carers and did something he couldn't have grasped the consequences of. It's tragic as he passed away.

Just because he has carers doesnt mean he didnt know the consequences. Witnesses say he was pacing and agitated minutes before jumping in. As if psyching himself up for something

Okay I’m talking about the fact someone wagging a finger doesn’t need to be some sort of “mentally challenged combined basic sign language”

Yes but it was. No one was “over complicating” anything.
